421. Deputy Gerry Adams asked the Minister for Health if those receiving therapy for sexual abuse receive information regarding their vulnerability to domestic abuse in view of the links between sexual abuse and domestic abuse. [42039/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraI understand that the funding of therapeutic services to victims of sexual violence is primarily a matter for Tusla. I am advised that in 2018, the Tusla national provision for frontline Domestic, Sexual and Gender-based Violence services was €23.8 million.
The Department of Children and Youth Affairs, may be in a position to advise further. The Department of Health has no remit in the area.
